Abstract

The Holocene Hypsithermal Interval(or climatic optimum) was the warmest post-glacial period: temperatures rose to as much as $1-4^{\circ}C$ above present temperatures. We hypothesize that southern plants expanded northward and upward during the Hypsithermal Interval. The Hypsithermal relict populations are defined as populations which distribute mainly in Is. Cheju and Southern subregions and have populations of short-distance dispersion separated by more than 100 km from the nearest distribution. The Hypsithermal relict species were identified and their distributions were mapped based on botanical floras and checklist, herbaria specimens, ecological studies, and field surveys of selected species. Evaluation of the hypothesis was based on reviews of published pollen stratigraphic and paleoecological studies. The results showed that the Holocene Hypsithermal relicts such as Corylopsis coreana Uyeki, Carpinus turczaninowii Hance, Stewartia koreana Nakai ex Rehder were expanded northward during the Holocene Hypsithermal Interval.

홀로세 기후최적기는 후빙기 동안에 가장 온난했던 시기로서 현재의 기온보다 $1-4^{\circ}C$ 높았다. 남방계식물들은 홀로세 기후최적기에 북쪽 또는 해발고도가 높은 지역으로 분포가 확장되었을 것으로 추정된다. 본 연구에서는 제주도, 남해안아구 또는 남부아구가 주 분포역이고 주 분포의 북방한계선에서 100 km이상 격리된 잔존집단이 존재하는 근거리 산포형의 남방계식물을 '기후최적기 잔존종'으로 규정하였다. 식물상 자료, 표본정보, 생태학적 연구 자료와 현장조사 자료를 분석하여 기후최적기 잔존종을 선정하고 이들의 분포도를 작성하였다. 화분층위학과 고생태학적 연구 자료를 근거하여 본 가설을 평가하였다. 그 결과 히어리, 소사나무, 노각나무와 같은 홀로세 기후최적기 잔존종은 기후최적기 동안에 북쪽으로 이주하였을 것으로 판단된다.
